How do I update my game from v18.7 to 18.9b? My save doesn't seem to carry over.

game makes chapter save which continues on next chapter, player saves are per chapter and don't appear on later versions.

so simply start on ch18.9b and click play.

The weird thing is that even all the gallery scenes are locked and the only option is to start a completely new playthrough. Is there a way to export game files from v18.7 to v18.9b?

Edit: Screenshot of folder structure if it helps

They've not actually said anymore on Steam release yet which is kind of odd. It's been almost 80 days (according to Itch.io) since the final version came out.

Unless they are having to do some adjustments for Steam, maybe there is some images/video that are copyrighted they can't use or something, not sure, but they have not many any noise about when it will come to Steam.

SHS goes by profiles, make sure your correct profile is loaded, it shows profiles bottom left on the main menu.

and also no need to keep older versions around.

I have been using the default profile ever since I've started on v18.7. It also seems to work fine on v18.8, but somehow, none of the saves appear for v18.9b at all. One thing I've noticed is that v18.9b has a smaller compressed file size than v18.8 (both are from GoFiles). I'll re-download v18.9b and try again.

The above are screenshots of the Epilogue saves only. There are saves from all other episodes that do not appear in v18.9b too. I do not switch/create/change profiles either, so I am unsure of what the fault is. I have also tried removing older versions (v18.7 & v18.8) and launch v18.9b, but the saves do not appear. In the shortcut in the game folders called "Saves Location", all game versions lead to the same destination folder [C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Shale_Hill_Secrets], though my game folder (the downloaded compressed ZIP file + the extracted contents from it) are in another drive.

as i said before old saves don't appear in new version, to see those saves you need to "rollback" back to chapter number you made those saves. as long as that game made save is intact you can play new content w/o nags.

this ain't renpy where can see saves from ch1 in ch 30.
